-serial login debugging:
-- perhaps related to symlink issue?
-- user not being created correctly?
-- init seems to be the problem: doesn't respect inittab
-    - maybe due to earlier init not completing? known problem w/ rc.local
-    - 'init s' then canceling brings up login correctly
-    - ordering of script might be the problem? tried moving to 010-*
-- add "dhclient eth0" to 9999-* and "echo root:crud | chpasswd" script to
-  enable remote login and set root password (for debugging with a router+ssh)
-- tried removing modprobe.d and sysctl.conf files
-- mildly shifted u-boot parameters around...
-- perhaps a new or changed set of packages? or a package dependancy?
-- also, haven't been building regularly due to missing symlink problem
-- tried using pinned sid version of live-* packages, also update build
-  machine's live-*
-- WORKED BEFORE ARG

-- moved serial console fixer back to default
-- still have missing symlink problem! due to kernel mangle hook? ownership?
